Durango Health and Rehabilitation

I could not be more grateful for a Nursing Home. My grandma kept falling at home and going to the hospital. She went to Durango health for rehab and got really strong, but was not able to go back home because she had stairs. The Nurse manager Katie was exceptional, she checked in on us to make sure we had everything we needed and helped us transition to long term care. We were so afraid to have our grandma living in a nursing home. You always think about them and think of old people that are not cared for and that they stink. We could not be more wrong the staff truly care about my grandma I have never seen her so happy she has friends there and loves the food. She got something we didn’t even know was missing, she has a sense of purpose in her life again. The Activites staff alway

I’ve been so impressed with the team at Durango Health and Rehab. The building is a little older but they have kept it up very well! It’s clean with spacious rooms, but I think the best thing about it is the staff there. They have some team members that have been there for more than 20 years!

At present, this decent facility provides an excellent nursing home environment predicated upon person-centered care, a respect for dignity, and a strong sense of community; pursuing core principles and best practices that have been proven to improve the well-being of both residents and staff alike. Emphasis on staff as a cornerstone: It correctly identifies the critical role of compassionate, stable, and well-trained staff, recognizing that high turnover can be extremely detrimental to residents who thrive on and rely upon consistent meaningful relationships, including profound moments of mutual companionship. In addition to this, there needs to be the cultivation of an underlying depth dimension. The depth dimension of the human experience in a nursing home is the pursuit of meaning,

My family could not be more pleased with the care my mother has gotten at the facility since her fall. The entire staff is upbeat, positive, caring, and committed to their work. This includes everyone from the housekeeping staff up through the administration. While it was hard to have our mom away from us, we never worried about the care she was receiving. They even looked after my dad, who spent all day everyday with her. They showered him with care and support as well. Thank you to all who make the Durango Rehabilitation Center a wonderful place to get the care you need when in that circumstance. I wish I could name everyone individually, but this review would be even longer than it already is. God bless you all for the work you do. You’re all angels!

I stayed in Durango for 2 weeks and 2 days. Each day I visited my sister Diane Kalaf at Durango Health and Rehabilitation.As she regained function of her fractured femur, I watched the physical therapist team and occupational therapy team surround her with patience, knowledge and determination. The nursing staff was also caring and on top of her needs. One nurse stood out as professional and totally engaged in the welfare of all his patients. We need more nurses like Samuel. My family will always be grateful for the hours he spent making sure her medications, vitals, and pain tolerance were always accurate and recorded. Thank you from Diane's family to all of you from housekeeping to social services.Amen.
